congratz goldy

atlast these all become in 1 piece (y)
Thank you Usman Bhai this build was only possible because of you Thanks for all your help

so what does the cost come to after u add up the goods u installed in it ...
Yaar tbh i haven't calculated the cost i am scared to actually but your welcome to check the items price on Amazon and calculate yourself

A very rare sight seeing someone customize their laptops like this. Superb job bro. It is a beast now.

Congrats on everything.
Thanks man, Customization is the whole point of owning an Alienware its the reason i love their laptops so much you have soo many options to
expand your setup just like a traditional desktop
